How long does it take USCIS to send me electronic notification of receipt of my I-829 form?

I submitted my I-829 application package/docs 3 weeks ago. I have USPS receipt of submission at Lewisville, TX Service center.

I also attached Form G1145 along with form I-829 to receive an electronic notification when USCIS accepts my form I-829. However, I have not yet received any confirmation of receipt.

The receipt time can be delayed to 60-90 days due to COVID.

The times vary, I usually advise clients it will take weeks, but in some cases, it took months, as long as 2-3 months during the worst times.

USCIS is delayed in issuing receipt notices and electronic notifications. You should wait up to 60 days to make sure (1) the filing fee check has cashed or your credit card has been charged); and (2) you receive the electronic notification and/or filing fee receipt. If you do not receive either within 60 days, you should email the immigrant investor program office or call the USCIS Contact Center.

Many receipts are taking several months, unfortunately.

They are far behind on everything. We get some back in 3 weeks; some in 3 months!
